How sulphur Matches Are Made.

Nearly all the operations Of match
making are now carried on by machinery.
The wood is first sawed into blocks of
uniform length, usually one and a half
inches long, or the length of the match.
These blocks are then fed into the cut
ting machine, which cuts twelve matches
at every stroke. To make round matches
the wood is forced through p~erforations
in metal plates. The splints are hen
pushed into stats arranged on q double
chain $50 feet long. On this they are
carried to the sulphur vat, dipped therein
by q mechanical movement and then in
the same to the phosphorus vat
and dipped. Machines are also used for
making the boxes and packing the splints
therein.
AS the consumption of matches is most
enormous-being estimated at six a day
for every man, woman and child in Eu-
rope and North America-they form an
important article of commerce, and the
invention of machinery for their manu-
facture has proved of great advantage.
But the especial value of machinery is
that it has so largely reduced the NOR
taity caused by working over the phos-
phorus. The substance, when heated,
throws off fumes which cannot be con-
tinuously breathed without causing dis
ease. In large factories 144, 900 small
boxes of matches are often made and
packed ready for shipping in a single
day.-Philadelphia Times.

1t is a singular fact that gypsies do not
mourn the death of their young, much al
they Owe and cherish the living. On one
occasion, where q band had buried a little
child in camp where l was visiting, hardly
had the evening come before the jolliest
of merry making was begun. The mourn
ing family were especially made comfort
able and piled with enlivening liquor
until long after midnight. l discovered
that the gypsy thought on all these mat
tiers was n of pure philosophy.
"Tak'n young. the sweet dearie,
'Fends tle road, a G-wearyl'
That is, q dead child is beyond trouble,
and NJ labor or effort is spared on the part
of friends to emphasize this idea and turn
the matter to some pleasurable account.
1t also holds good on the death of the
elder gypsies, though in a lesser degree.
While | have never been able. even
through the most careful inquiry and OBJ
servation, to discover in any gypsy l
ever knew a definite faith in q future ex-
istence, or the possible reunion of kin, or
the good, after death, q gypsy who has
been an honor to his kind is buried with
great ceremony. 1t is not ~infrequent
that his entire portable effects are burned
at or near his grave. "Hits better they
be wi him., " or, "Owsumdever mout i'm
be wi'out naught but lis hands crossed"
are about all that can be got for the
closest questioning. There is in it all,
however, a ridiculous and grim Difference

Boil. and Their Treatment.

That which in every day talk is called
a boil, sometimes ''bile'' or ''beel," tech
nical writers call a %furuncle. This word
is of Latin derivation, the original signi.
flying a petty thief, and in view of the
fact that few trifles can SO effectually rob
a man of his peace of mind it would ap-
pear that furuncie were the better name
for the trouble in question, which is a cir
cumscribed Inflammation occurring in
the skin and tissues Immediately there
under.
Boils, like death, claim all seasons for
their own, and may come singly or in
groups. The coincidence of boils and
general systematic diseases is
When or however boils appear the victim
should regard them much the same as a
railroad man regards a danger signal and
call a halt. Inquiry into the condition of
a furunculou patient will, as a rule, re-
veal two facts-a vitiated condition Of
the blood and local violence, frequently
in the way of chatting by close fitting
neckwear or other clothing.
What has Just been said makes it toler.
ably clear what those suffering from
boils want to do. ALI sources Of local
irritation should be removed and tonics,
good food, rest, change of air, etc.,
made use of. Heat and moisture are
remedies the local use of which is very
useful. A small bag of thin, old muslin
does well to hold the time honored poul-
tice with which it is well to incorporate a
tablespoonful of lard or some other
unctuous substance.
The simplest and best local application
for boils is the pouring thereon of water
as hot as can be borne. This gives much
relief and nj doubt hastens the forma-
tim of pus in the boil, an event whose
occurrence is signalized by the cessation
of the %throbbing pain 30 familiar to those
who nave suffered from furuncle. Boils
may at times be nipped in the bud, SO to
speak, by painting around them very
early with tincture of iodine.-Philadel-
phia Times.

Tw ENTY YEARS OLD.

WIN tnlS issue II LEADER enters
upon the twenty-frst year of its publica.
ton. On the 10Th day of September,
1867, it was started as an u~npretentious
little tri-weekly paper, being issued as a
daily from the 2lst of December following.
Cheyenne was then in that stage of its
existence when it earned and proudly wore
the title of Hell on Wheels" 1t wasn't
a town of much pretentions in an archi-
%tectural way, many of the leading bust
ness houses consisting simply OF tents.
The Union Pacific railroad had not yet
reached Cheyenne, and the first and many
subsequent issues of TIE LEADER were
filled with interesting paragraphs to the
effect that dirt was flying with a good
deal OF freedom, and the Union Pacific
was rapidly nearing the ~llveliest little city
on the PLAINS, just as THE LEADER of to-
day is sprinkled with notes regarding the
incoming of the Cheyenne & Burlington
Wyoming had not her been formed, but
was a part of that vast region known as
Dakota. This whole section was in the
oompletest sense an unknown country and
the Indian was worry frequently the master
OF the situation.
A score of years have worked a won
derful revolution in this whole region, but
we are ever now only on the threshold of
the development of our great our
The past twenty years of trade and traffic
have served to advertise to the world tho
hidden sources of Wyoming's wealth; the
next twenty years will bring about practi
cal development in all directions. The
tidal wave of emigration has been flowing
to the west for years. There has never
been any encouragement given to divert
it into Wyoming. 1t was first considered
a desert; then it was discovered to afford
rich grazing land, and now it Is beginning
to dawn upon everybody that there is also
a great agricultural future before the ter
ritory. The overflow of emigration from
Nebraska is being felt, and it soon will
swarm over the land like an invading
army. The available land at the disposal
Of the emigrant is rapi1 lily growing con,
tracted. Wyoming is In the direct line
Of the emigration wave, and cannot help
soon receiving an enormous access to its
population.
This is the future blooded stock country
Of the United States. The business has
made wonderful strides in a few years
and the success attending it has been
little less than marvellous.
Foreign capital is beginning to flow
toward Wyoming and its oil, coal, copper
iron, precious minerals, soda beds and
quarries have already reached a stage of
Development which indicates what we
may expect from these sources within a
very few years.
As the pioneer paper of Wyoming THE
LEADER looks forward to the future with
confidence thas it has great things in
store for the territory and for Cheyenne.
In the march of progress the eagle eye
of a generous public will not fail to dis
cover that THE LEADER is keeping up
with the procession.

The people are pious; they are very
fond of outward shows and ceremonies,
and the men religiously observe the feast
days, Of which there are about two a
week. On these days the women work
harder than usual, while the men occupy
themselves with playing cards and drink
ing wine. Very large quantities of wine
are consumed by the peasants. DIR. Pircker
is my authority for Raying that many
peasants who never drink a drop of water,
and drink far too much wine, live to a
good old age. They eat heartily and
heavily; five meals a day are required to
appease their appetites; at each meal
smoked meat, maize and black bread are
eaten. The bread is baked -four times a
year, so it is generally stale and satisfy
ing. In speech the people are Germans,
and they show nc trace of the Italian
blood and characteristics which are con-
spicuous in other parts of South Tyrol.
1t is probable, however, that the stock is
very mixed, as the people of many nations
have successfully occupied this part Of
Europe.-London Correspondence.

An English surgeon claims to have dis
covered the Gauge of clergymen's sore
Threats. No other speakers are affected
in this way, and he has come to the con
clusion that the malady is induced by
speaking down to q congregation from an
elevated pulpit, thereby depressing the
vocal organs and causing irritation and
congestion. If clergymen would hold the
head erect and speak up they would never
have throat trouble, and even if already
suffering to some extent they may cure
themselves by speaking in a right position.
There are bad habits of phonation, breath
ing, etc, which a good teacher can easily
correct, but the bending forward of the
head and hanging over the sermon while
reading it is worst Of all, and any man
can correct himself in it.-Living Church.

RED \ WHITE.
The Fad that Red-headed Women Bring
White Horses.

1t is the very latest and all the rage
just now. Everyone who is so unfortun-
ate as to become acquainted with the fad
instantly becomes more or less OF a crank
upon the subject. 1t is imported direct
from New York and is probably of English
origin. This is it: You see a red
headed woman or girl skipping along the
pavement. If you don't see a white or
gray horse in less than a minute after OBJ
serving the auburn haired female draw on
THE LEADER for 500. payable thirty
days after the reformation of Margaret
Henne or Mrs. jenkins.
Just why a white horse should invar-
iably be sighted almost simultaneous with
the advent OF a rod-haired female no one
seems to know or attempt to explain, but
nothing is more certain. Yesterday a
reporter and another crank on the SUBJ
ject stood at Rhodes & Troxoll's corner
for fully thirty minutes trying to dispel
the hallucination, but without success.
Every time a golden tressed angel tripped
past a white coated equine soon ambled
along.

sticketh closer than Italian beggars. 1t

asylums, bus is still popular in that sec

would have eventually landed in institu-

regularly tends to increase the natural
love OF man for the always sociable and
usually handsome red haired girl
